Remember that rubbish bin case we all said it was not the bin it was in the air.

AS WE SAID IT WAS IN THE AIR.

This isnt a guess. It is based on 120 years of studies, physics, and biology. Epidemiology needs to sort itself out.
But in fairness, not NZ epidemiology. They sequenced genes and solved this and changed its practises to match. Wow.

Here in Canada we

That was the tweet.
I can't find my old garbage can tweet from last year because I've called so many comments and studies garbage in the meantime. That's kind of funny. But mostly sad.

All you need to know about the strident defence of certain threads on here by members of the @WHO is that the two parties have a working relationship. Image
I posted the above, because of the outrageousness of this post. Image
My comment, which I'll repost so I don't drag others into this thread:

"Seeing this was unbelievable. Supporting a thread by suggesting anyone against it is attacking in bad faith, AND has been warned, AND that they've been spoken to and have not listened.

Wow. Just wow."

We accept chickenpox is in the air, and this is what was said about it in 1980.

Sound familiar?

Even the denial is the same as we see today.
Airborne spread has never been UNEQUIVOCALLY demonstrated

Thank you for the clean-up.

Wu Lien-teh in 1917 saying it is clear that plague infested marmots infect each other through their breath.

Modern PH/ID/IPAC would say "cannot extrapolate from marmots to humans" but we know what I think of that nonsense, disproven repeatedly

Some public health truths, in the guise of a joke.

A short thread in seven parts.
ONE

Virus is not airborne. We know. trust us on this.

So, wash hands. There's no real proof of respiratory viruses travelling by fomite, but it's our story.
